Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230 515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq	How old were you when you had that 18 months of missing 185 and said you weren't going to improve further Andy? Just before you were the big 4 0?

Just before you were the big 4 0? Last time I tried 185 was new years day 2010, a couple of weeks shy of 40. I missed a 182 a couple of days after turning 40 and did 180 a week after that. Then I went on holiday to Spain and that was that.

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts	19:00 The Bunker PJBN 50x3 70x3 90x3 110x3 Just cant move. Could do with going up really but can't. Poo. PPBN 100x5 115x5 Bit more like it. Not a lot like, but a bit. Press 50x3 70x3 90x3 Turtles headed on the last one, but it went. Frontees makes no sense. Legs are goosed. Plod on. 50x3 Back is amazingly tight. I blame Coupey. 100x3 Not good. 125x1 The start of a plan, but a long way off. 145x1 2014PB isn't on, so we'll salvage what we can. 155x1 bit of a grinder. The revised plan is to leave it there. 165x1 As Joni used to say "f**k the plan". Progress!!! Getting stronger slowly, but moving is becoming a problem. As much as I dont like doing it the mat has come out and it's a 15 minute stretch off at the end of each day. Lighter one tomorrow with the emphasis on moving. Heavy one Thursday. Hike and camping Friday-Sunday. & stretching.

What is your best front squat and back squat (without wraps)?

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts	I had so many goes at 147/ 150 it was silly. By the time I was strong enough to pull that weight I'd lost the mobility to move under it. Bummer. AndyCoupe said:5kg up on last time, was that the plan? No lol. The plan was to do a s**t load with 50k and get used to sitting in, and have a general stretch off. Once I could sit in 50k wasn't enough to stretch (what I perceive as) bottom positions. I just kept going then.
